Cheap flights from Krakow to Florianopolis

September is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar covers September through February plus June, so start your search there. Fares climb around Christmas and New Year, when Brazilians fly home and Europeans head south for the sun, and again during the southern summer school holidays. Leaving midweek, rather than on a Friday or at the weekend, usually costs less, and a longer layover in a European hub often brings the fare down. Book well ahead for December and January; for September and October you can afford to leave it later.

There are no direct flights between Krakow and Florianopolis, so every itinerary is built from connections. The carriers you will see most often are full-service names such as LOT Polish Airlines, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Scandinavian Airlines, Swiss, Austrian, Brussels Airlines and HOP!, alongside low-cost and hybrid options including Eurowings, Air Baltic and Fly Dubai. On full-service tickets the long-haul leg usually includes a checked bag and meals, while low-cost legs price bags and seat selection separately. Mixing carriers on one booking is common here, so read what each leg includes before you compare totals.

You land at Hercilio Luz, the airport that serves Florianopolis and the Santa Catarina coast. It sits close to the city rather than far inland, so the transfer to the centre is short compared with many Brazilian airports. Taxis and ride-hailing apps meet every arrival, and local buses run into town through the day. If you arrive on a late connection from a European hub, check whether you clear immigration at your first Brazilian stop or at the final one, and keep your onward booking within reach. Have your accommodation address ready for the immigration form.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check your baggage allowance on every leg, because low-cost connections often sell the hold bag separately.
• Make sure the whole trip is on one ticket, or leave a generous gap if you booked the legs separately.
• Krakow flies from Balice, so confirm your terminal and allow time for the drive to the airport.
• Check passport validity and visa rules for Brazil well before departure.
• Run your dates through the price calendar, since September and the December holidays price very differently.
• Allow enough time at your connecting airport, as a missed long-haul leg is hard to rebook.
